I'msorry for this, I thought that a critical service like PyPI was supported bya team. I (and presume other developers) rely heavily on it. Maybe thisshould be brought to the attention of the PSF.

We're aware. PyPI is currently the *only* python.org service with adedicated full time developer (and Donald's time is actuallycontributed by the OpenStack group at HP rather than being fundeddirectly by the PSF). There are also a number of organisations thatdonate resources to operating the python.org infrastructure (e.g. theFastly CDN, and hosting services from Heroku, Rackspace and the OpenSource Lab at Oregon State University).

Bringing paid development in to support community driven projects,while also ensuring financial sustainability and fiscally responsiblemanagement of contributor's funds is an interesting challenge, and onethe PSF continues to work to get better at.
